Course
Packets (as opposed to "course reserves")
A “course packet”
is a collection of material selected by an instructor, copied and
bound by Printing Services, and sold to students for a particular
class. Most course packets are sold in the campus bookstore. Some
are sold in the Copy Center, located in the Student Union Building, room 201. The instructor determines which course packets are sold
where.
“Course Reserve”
is material placed in the Library's Reserve Collection by an instructor
for use by the students of a particular class. The Reserve Collection
is located on the lower level in the north wing, and contains information
resources in a variety of formats. Electronic or digital reserve
material is available at http://ereserve.weber.edu/
